Facebook syncing with phone/people list?

Is it possible to make facebook only sync with people i already have on the phone? As it is now, it adds anyone in my facebook friends that have added a number to my phone list, would rather have it so that i can manually sync the contacts i have on the phone already, or that it only synced those that already where on the phone, is this possible?

I don't know if it's possible. But in the "Contact" app you can press "Menu" then click on "Display" (i think) and choose which contact's list will appear !
I hope it will help you.

It makes them disappear from people but not the dialer really Annoying I hoped froyo would have got rid of this issue

Yea, that's what am talking about, i know it's possible to not show them in the contacts/people app, but they still show up in the dialer.

Q how to use a different calendar when tapping on notifications

Hi,
I have installed me another calendar app (aCalendar). When i get notifications in the topbar my phone uses the build in calendar. How can i avoid this and use aCalender?
Thanks

You mean you're getting both default calendar and aCalendar notifications at the same time?
Go into the default Calendar app and select the account it's synced too and uncheck the sync box. Then it'll stop notifying you because it won't be synced to new events.

You need to clear defaults for the gmail app. then you can select which app to do the action you want next time you click it.

Doesnt work here.
Is my calender app perhaps the problem? It uses the build in calendar so it might not handle the notifications...
Am i correct? Dont i have to use another app? Which one do you use?
Thanks in advance

@martonikaj no i just get the googlecalendar notification. Sorry overread your question in first place...
Bye

Hi
It doesnt work till today. I tried several calendars now (jorte, quick and lately business calendar) The problem remains The Same: when i pull down Thema notification bar where The event notification pops up and select the event The phone jumps in the Google calendar.
Is this an ICS problem?
What am i doing wrong?
Please help.
Thx
Ateshga

Whichever app is providing the notification will open when you click. You need to set up notification with your desired app and disable notification in the unwanted app - of course, having said that, I'm not sure those options are available, so it may just be easier to freeze the undesired app instead...

Hi i now found my failure: i got what i paid for. Free apps mostly dont support notifications.
I now bought an app (business calendar) and all is fine now.
Seems i have to learn a bit more about the android world.
Thx for the help i got ...
A.

I started using Business Calendar. I removed notifications for the default calendar, but I forgot to remove sync. The notification bar would never clear, now I think I know why. Thanks martonikaj.

Calender Notification on Lock Screen

Hi Guys,
Loving the One X so far!
One annoyance that I can seem to figure out is with the lockscreen set to productivity and showing birthdays via calendar, it only shows upcoming birthday's (tomorrow)
Anyone know how to get the lock screen calendar notification to show todays birthdays/appointments ?
Thanks!

Go to the menu to adjust lock screens. They chose the 2nd one (productivity) and press "Settings", 4th item says "Show calendarevents" click that one.
Now chose all the calendars you want to show on the lock screen. (Most likely the one with birthdays isn't check, so just check that one and the other calendars you want to see)

I have tried what you are saying and selected all the calendars. The problem is not that the birthdays dont show, its that the notification shows the birthdays for tomorrow and not today, thats the issue here. Wondering how to set the notifications to show todays calendar events

Uhm I don't know how to fix that. Sorry!

That's how it works unfortunately - only shows next event, not current event

Kinda beats the point then doesnt it? Having it on the notification screen is to remind us of what is due today, rather than tomorrow yeah?

All appointments in the future (also for today) are shown. Your problem is that birthdays normally add as all-day-event and this is already begon (at midnight) and therefore it is not shown.
A workaround can be to change the event to a time in the future (such as 23pm).

[Q] Facebook birthdays shows on lockscreen although unchecked

Hi!
This is really annoying.
I have unchecked every calendar except my main one.
But the birthdays from the Facebook-calendar is still showing as a notice on the lockscreen. Is there someway around this? Or do I have to send an error report to HTC?
Cheers

Go to Personalize > Lock Screen Style > Productivity* > Settings > Display calendar events from... and select/deselect ones you want to show.
*this assumes you are using this particular theme/skin for locked screen.
I was doing the same as you, thought unchecking the FB calendar in Calendar options/settings would do the trick but no joy - took me a while to figure this out!
Hope it works.

Tryed that,didn't work,i think is a lock screen bug,i am using MILocker now.

As stated above. I does not work, that was the first thing I tried.

It worked for me.
Are you both stock or custom & are you running latest Facebook version?
Perhaps try uninstalling the Facebook app, clearing the app cache & re-installing might help. Then deselect Facebook calendar under app sync options, calendar view and then lock screen settings just to be thorough.
Failing that, not sure what else to try except a hard reset if it bothers you that much!

[Q] New mails don't appear in the Lock Screen

Hi. I am very satisfied with my HTC ONE X. There is just one thing bothering me: It seems to be impossible to display the new arriving mails on my Lock Screen (Productivity). Missed calls, new text messages and my calendar events are no problem, but there is now way to get the new mails on that screen. The settings are correct, but I still don't unsterstand why it doesn't work....
Waiting for HTC support is like hoping for Jesus to appear in front of you ...
By the way, I am using the official Gmail App for my mailing. I also read in another forum that the HTC guys are not to blame: The problem would be coming from Google...
So, what shall I do, did I miss something ?
Does anyone have an idea to help me out, would be highly appreciated !

Are you using a third party launcher? I have found that the Rosie launcher needs to be running in memory for the mail notification to update on the lock screen. It doesn't however have to be your primary launcher. Just create a shortcut to it and launch it whenever the notification icons stop updating. I haven't taken the time to figure out if Android kills the launcher from memory or not during use.

If you go to settings > personalise > lock screen style then go to the productivity option and select settings if you go to the 'display mail from' option it will only allow you to select the accounts you have in the default mail app.
This is slightly odd though as the calendar display options allow you to display calendar items from many more sources that you have already configured (Facebook, Google etc.)
Just for clarification, I have a fully stock HOX.

Thank you for your replies guys. It has strictly nothing to do with thirdpard launchers, or with the settings. It simply doesn't work because it is not the default mail program I am using. Sad but true...

I recently figured that out as well it won't show official Gmail app emails, you need to configure your gmail account into HTCs mail app which is not too bad for Gmail saying that.
